Form Report Layout Mode #24

Description

I think this needs to be more robust. I ran into some issues with existing modules where I could not customize this area enough due to it being hardcoded. Basically the choice for $form_report_layout_mode is true or false. Should look into setting this to a string or something else so we have more options on layout. The default layouts are tabs and the horizontal table report layout. I would be curious to see what we can do here. Perhaps default it $form_report_layout_mode = 'tabs'; and have the ability to specify a custom partial.

I also had to do some hackery to get the layout I wanted only on preview action. I believe _form_form.htm is used on any of the form views. I wanted it to be visible on /preview/1/ but not when used in the preview popup window.

Use Case: A client needed the tabs removed and the "tabs" would be displayed vertically down the page. I had to create a custom form_form.htm for every controller.
